I just posted the hard evidence (the actual numbers). The company is going to produce 5-6X the revenue with a similar number of employees as they had 6-7 years ago before the overhiring boom.

But I guess we'll just have to defer to the AI experts at...the Financial Times...and their emotional vibes of the situation instead.

The future is not evidence? I don’t understand what you’re saying.

That’s not evidence. That’s a belief. I’m not disagreeing they overhired, but this statement contains no evidence that reducing the size of the company like this is going to yield the same or greater profits.
